Hello My name is Laterria Pusha I have been a CNA for 6 years now. I started being a caregiver because I was suppose take care of my step father once he got ill but he never made it because he gave up and I wanted to make a change and let's peopl know it's still hope. I enjoy helping and learn about someone who once could've did everything for themselves my heart's is made for this and I will never stop.

Wife of 27 years, mother to 5, grandmother to 1. Work history includes home health CNA, Law Enforcement, Property Management and full time mother . Last 10 plus years I was the full time care giver for my mom who was a kidney patient (dialysis, medicine induced diabetic), auto-immune Patient which led to head and neck cancer and dad (COPD, Emphysema) before they passed. I enjoy caring for everyone, but the elderly hold a special place in my heart. Listening to them reminisce about the things they did when they were younger is one of my favorite things. They may not remember what they ate for breakfast, but watching their eyes light up when they tell me about a first love, a best friend from school or anything from their younger days fills my heart with joy. Previous experience in cancer care, dialysis care, COPD, emphysema, dementia, diabetic care and special needs. CPR/AED certified

Caring personality with the ability to not only sympathize but empathize with my patients. I have amazing experiences with geriatric and dementia patients that have forever shaped my life, couldn't see myself on any other career path!!

The feeling you get knowing you made a difference in someone's life is enough to justify my career path
